Man arrested after allegedly leading patrol on pursuit that went through Jamestown
Mar. 3—JAMESTOWN — A 33-year-old Pensacola, Florida, man was arrested on Sunday, March 2, after he allegedly led law enforcement on a pursuit that began in LaMoure County and ended near Bordulac, North Dakota, according to a news release issued by the North Dakota Highway Patrol.
Serry Deason Busbee faces formal charges of reckless endangerment-extreme indifference and fleeing a peace officer-vehicle-risk of death or serious bodily injury, Class C felonies, and driving under suspension, a Class B misdemeanor. He is in the Stutsman County Correctional Center.
The patrol said a trooper initiated a pursuit of a Lincoln Town Car at about 12:45 p.m. Sunday following a traffic stop for exceeding the speed limit. The suspect drove recklessly, including passing another vehicle at the crest of a hill at 110 mph, the patrol said.
The pursuit continued northbound with the suspect evading spike strips, the patrol said.
A second vehicle, later determined to be driven by another person known by Busbee, followed the pursuit at high speeds but was stopped by law enforcement, the patrol said.
The pursuit entered Jamestown, and the trooper discontinued the pursuit for safety reasons.
A second troop reengaged the pursuit outside of city limits on the North Dakota Highway 52 bypass, the patrol said. The patrol said Busbee continued to drive recklessly, crossing into oncoming lanes and endangering other motorists.
Busbee was arrested near Bordulac.
The patrol is investigating the incident.
